   have you seen the glibc ebuild? it's 1500 lines. lfs does it in less than 50

   gentoo has a feature creep and bitrot problem that has been going on for no less than 15 years. glibc is a package that should be closely guarded as it is at the CORE of your system.

• Bringing up BPI-F3 - Part 1

  Their images are Debian derivatives, I prefer Gentoo and since we have stage3 for rv64_lp64d-openrc, I guess I can give it a try. - Source: dev.to / 2 days ago

• Gentoo bans AI-created contributions

  > Gentoo does not accept art contributions of any kind (human/ai), there is just no place for this. Okay, let's do a short fact check on that: 1. Visit https://gentoo.org, notice logo in top left: a first sign of contributed art. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Linux saved my life

  And just wait till you discover Arch Linux, Gentoo, Guix, or NixOS. Source: 10 months ago

• I'd like to interview redditors here about their favorite distro release.

  I'm daily driving Gentoo GNU/Linux (https://gentoo.org). I prefer it over other GNU/Linux distributions because it allows me to customize the operating system down to a lower level. I'm also planning on installing Linux From Scratch (https://linuxfromscratch.org) for educational purposes. However, I might end up daily driving it. I do extremely difficult and tedious activities on my computer just for fun and I... Source: about 1 year ago

• Is the Gentoo Wiki down?

  I can't access any of the gentoo.org services at this time (forums, bugs, etc.) They all report server errors. Source: over 1 year ago

• IMG2VDU and a little something for someone that also likes DOS...

  Now on to DOS! At the homepage of the same website, I have a list of recommended software a certain DOS enthusiast may find interesting. I also have an ANSI-like desktop environment called "PsychDOS" at https://psychoslinux.gitlab.io that is rather large in size but worst case, you can "gut-it-out" or just play around with it in DOSBox.

• Turning a 2008 Netbook into a Retro Gaming Machine

  PsychOS (https://psychoslinux.gitlab.io) was mostly developed on an Acer Aspire One ZG5 (AOA150), just like the one in the video but with 1GB of RAM and I think it has 256MB of VRAM. The reason I am mentioning it is because I also pack it with emulators and makes use of DOSBox to run software from the programs menu, as well as includes a program I made called RetroGrab to easily add more; or worse case, just visit...

• PsychDOS now has a QCOW2 download option

  Just to recap, PsychDOS is an ANSI-like, but clickable, desktop environment for DOS that I released a while back in which I had two options, one for installing onto DOSBox, FreeDOS, MS-DOS, etc. Via a ZIP and another option for running an IMG (pre-configured FreeDOS) in a virtual machine emulator called QEMU so as to have working Internet. However, it recently dawned on me that most people are probably using... Source: over 2 years ago

• Easier to use Linux alternatives website I'm making

  I'm sort of a lazy ass too so I use Imagemagick for everything in the terminal. If you check PsychOS they have a huge collection of individual tools that can perform some advanced editing features like deepfake ai stuff. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Do i386 packages run on an i486 machine?

  Do i386 packages run on an i486 machine or is using "i386" just a generic naming kind of thing? I've been trying to figure out ways to create an i486 version of PsychOS (https://psychoslinux.gitlab.io) and Knoppix 7.2.0 may be a solution but would adding a bunch of i386 packages actually work or break things? Plus I need to know before I end up putting my foot in my mouth any further if I ever go on a luddite... Source: about 3 years ago
